Life begins anew
when a new life begins.
It began nine months ago
in the silence of the night
known only to the two
who shared their love,
freely, honestly, with
passion beyond words.
And the two became three
On this adventure together
to share for a wondrous lifetime.
And it was more than magical on that day
of his early arrival outside his safe cocoon,
greeting his parents
with all ten fingers and toes
and a sweet face to melt your heart!
He is my apong lalaki.
Much love from your Lola,
now and forever!
